They are attending more than 30 classroom and hands-on computer lab sessions. Conference participants also have the opportunity to be certified on Transfinder’s routing and planning software, Routefinder Pro.

The closing session on Saturday will be led by Antonio Civitella, president and CEO, who will give a glimpse of GO – Geographic Optimization – or GO! – the latest in new product features in Routefinder Pro.

Civitella said, “This conference offers our clients an outstanding professional development experience, but also a fantastic opportunity to network with transportation professionals nationwide to share ideas and best practices in pupil transportation.
